Rachel whiteread - for becky

i remember seen a piece of rachel whitereads in the Tate britain.. (i think im 98% sure i snuck in somehow..)

and she had a cabinet of all these different objects she had collected, hope it helps in a sense of layout?


Exhibition Ideas

For my final exhibition piece I am looking to pickle or preserve in some manor my dandelion seed heads, in miscellaneously shaped glass jars hanging from the ceiling if that is possible.
I am unsure of amount as I cant picture quite how many I would need to work in the space but probable 20 to 30? So really all I would need to exhibition is space to hang from that would take the weight of glass jars.

Exhibition Idea.

My idea for the exhibition is to have a small stand with my little mechanical music box and strips on it, and for the viewers to be able to play the music through it, as well as the recorded melodys which I have put together and hopefully onto an ipod which can be played continously throughout the exhibition. In the background I am thinking of enlarging some photographs I have taken and using them as a visual aspect.
I am not sure yet which photographs I will be using.

Free Standing-Jessie

I came across this article on the largest free standing artwork.

The shape seems to be very similar to the shape of your billboard sculptures.

Hope it's useful

Exhibition Ideas

note 17th may -im juggling between the cylindrical swirls hanging or keeping them free standing i need to try it out.. update more tomorrow..






Floss' Exhibition


My aim is to make a hanging piece to a shape similar to the sketches below. It doesn't need to be anywhere specific  but needs to hang about 5ft 10 high from the ground (ish) I may use a light source but it depends how I feel about it when it's up. 


Final Ideas for the Exhibition

In addition to Martina's post on what she wishes to show for the exhibition, I hope to display three long banners influenced by the oil painting experiment I undertook. These banners will be 240cm in length as I want them to brush off the floor and approximately 40cm wide. I will need to have a space where I can hang the banners, preferably off one of the pipes. I also want to see what the banners will look like with the addition of generated air as I feel it would portray the whimsical feel of the atmosphere I was exploring throughout the project.
